Thomas Daniell was an English landscape painter who also painted Orientalist themes. Thomas Daniel made his name with a series of prints and aquatints of views based on his travels in India in 1786–1794. Such ‘exotic’ Indian scenes became the stock-in-trade for Daniell for the rest of his career. View Artist Collection

There is another, earlier, view of the same gateweay by William Hodges published in the series Select views in India with the lettering : "A View of a Mosque at Chunar Gur" - see ICV 51119. Reproduced in Archer on p. 99, where she compares the images Chunargarh, or Chunar, was a well-known landmark on the journey up and down the Ganges and many of the British stopped to explore the various buildings there. By the Daniells' time, the old Mughal fort on the cliff-top was used by the British as a European invalid station for wounded and sick soldiers. Archer op. cit.
